Chapter 1: Three Years Later
"Ahh When I woke up, my back was soaked, and I sat down in my chair, clutching my frightened chest, and my heart said that I was scared to death, how could I have such a dream? Opposite was a girl holding an oil lamp, beautiful but without any expression, looking at me with eyes that made people unable to explore any emotion, and I jumped up from my chair in fright: "Who are you?" How did I end up here? "As a result, I almost fell to the ground, and it seemed that I had slept for a long time, and my body was a little disobedient.
She stood up expressionlessly, looking at me coldly, I couldn't help but wonder if I owed her money and didn't pay it back, otherwise how could I look at me like this? Then I heard her say, "You shouldn't come here, let's go!" ”
What do you mean I shouldn't come? What kind of place is this? I was a little distressed, and I tried hard to recall everything, but the previous one occupied all the memories and covered the others. Patting his head and finally remembering, since Xiao Rui's death, my whole body is confused, and today is the seventh day of July, the legendary Halloween, I stubbornly think that Xiao Rui will come back to see me today, so I specially prepared the items used in the grave at night, and went out, who knew that I encountered a heavy rain on the way, and I had no choice but to run to this old house to avoid the rain, who knew that I fell asleep like this.
I had knocked on the door before, but no one opened it so I came in by myself, and I was a little embarrassed, after all, it was not good to break into someone's house without saying hello.
After thinking about everything clearly, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately everything before was a dream, I didn't do anything as stupid as in the dream, and I affected so many innocent people, at this time she seemed to see my thoughts, and said seriously: "Do you really think that everything is a dream?" ”
Ho? I was so frightened that I jumped away from her, and said how could this person know what I was thinking, she was still that expressionless dead look, and I wanted to beat her, but I don't know why, I could feel a strong sense of oppression on her, so I didn't dare to make a mistake, and even if I wanted to do it, the person who was beaten might not be who!
I think she saw my thoughts, but she still ignored me, I couldn't help but feel a little angry, she was wearing a black tight leather suit, highlighting her delicate figure, her long hair was tied up high, if you smiled, she would definitely fascinate thousands of teenagers, but I don't know why I always felt that she was a little familiar, I was thinking about where I had seen her, when I saw her walk towards the chair I had sat in before.
She took down a painting that hung on the wall, I didn't notice what it looked like, it was an ink painting of an ancient lady, and before I could see the rest, she put it away, and then she looked at me and said, "It's time to go!" ”
"Oh" I subconsciously responded, and followed her out, and when I walked out of the door, I suddenly thought, hey, how can I listen to her so easily? At this time, when I looked up, I found that she was gone, and I said how this person was so elusive and not afraid of scaring people to death, so I shouted at the top of my voice: "Hey, where are you?" ”
For a long time, there was no other sound, I thought she might have gone back again, but I heard a bang, the door closed, I was so angry in my heart, as for such a rush? Indignantly carrying the items ready to worship Xiao Rui to go home, the moon of nearly fifteen is always round, and the soft light is sprinkled on the earth, which can't help but make people sad, the moon is full, but people can never be reunited.
Autumn 2011, Qian'an City, Anyang Sunrise News Building.
The humid and sultry weather has lasted for a week, and countless cars on the highway are crowded and hugged, like ants moving forward little by little, sitting in the office writing press releases, I can't help but be glad that I live in the company dormitory not far away, otherwise this kind of irritable and dead weather, would you not want to die?
"Luo Xue!" Sissi's voice always seemed to be roaring, and when I connected the phone, I was far away from the receiver, just to protect my diaphragm from being forced and raped by her, and sighed helplessly: "What are you doing?" ”
"What do you say?" Sissi said loudly with dissatisfaction: "What time is it?" Don't tell me you're working overtime, right? ”
I looked at the unfinished press release in my hand, touched my nose and said, "The manuscript is not finished yet, it may be a little later!" ”
"I said, what's the matter with your leader?" Sissi's voice became louder again: "How can you do your own overtime?" He can't be plotting against you, is he? I said you hurry, I still have something to discuss with you! Tell you, at most seven o'clock, the food stall downstairs in your dormitory, if you want to release my pigeon again, I will definitely not spare you!! I looked at the half-finished manuscript, and said that it was too urgent and would cost my life, and I was about to discuss it with her when I heard a beeping voice on my mobile phone, and my mother hung up!
"Editor-in-Chief Ye......" As soon as I turned my head, I saw Ye Anxu standing on the left with a smile, looking at that look, I should have heard Qianqian's words, I was so embarrassed, I didn't know where to put my hands and feet when I stood there, and secretly scolded Qianqian in my heart for being open-mouthed and loud, and I could hear it without turning on the hands-free, this time I offended my boss, and I had to be anxious with her if I wanted to be put in small shoes!!
"Why are you tired?" Ye Anxu smiled at the corner of his mouth, very gentle, I saw that I was in a trance, so like...... Like Xiao Rui's smile on his lips. It's been two years since that incident, and although it's just a dream, it's too real, just like my foreknowledge of the future, when I left that house, my family found me halfway, and I learned about a frightening thing, that house, fifteen years ago, and seventeen years ago, was burned to ashes, and it was Halloween, and what I came across is hard to say.
In order to avoid the repetition of the future and dreams, I chose to stay in Qian'an City to continue my studies, and after graduating a year later, I successfully passed the internship and entered the Anyang Sunrise News Building, and became a text reporter for a year, and my partner is still Ling Yi, who was a partner in the internship, and Xiqian also found a computer company in Qian'an as a programmer.
"Hey......" I suddenly felt a hand on my shoulder, I suddenly came back to my senses, Ye Anxu was frowning: "Did you hear what you just told you?" ”
"Huh?" I hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry Editor-in-Chief Ye, I just got distracted, can you say it again?" ”
Ye Anxu sighed and said, "Can you take a little heart?" Fortunately, it's me, if I talk to the person above me and get distracted, do you want to do it? ”
